Job description

Wiltshire Farm Foods have been cooking and delivering delicious frozen meals for over 25 years.

Part of the apetito group, an award winning leading food producer for the health and social care sector, providing delicious, nutritious and sustainable meals for people at home or in care.

The Franchise in Northern Ireland was established in 2003 and we are looking to add a delivery driver to our franchise.

The role of our Delivery Driver is critical to the success of our business. Our customers are predominantly elderly and rely upon our delivery drivers to deliver their meals as quickly and efficiently as possible. As such you must genuinely enjoy meeting people and exceeding customer service standards, and always be willing to go above and beyond what is expected.

The defining characteristics of our Delivery Drivers are organisation and efficiency. The most important attributes are that we demonstrate empathy, patience, kindness, friendliness, care and warmth to all our customers. You may also provide holiday or absence cover for other members of the team.

The role involves the delivery of customer orders. These deliveries are particularly important as many customers live alone and the deliveries, they receive are often the only contact they may have in a single day - many customers become very attached to their “friends” at Wiltshire Farm Foods.

We operate a 7-day week service, employing a successful team comprised of customer service staff, cold store staff and drivers alongside the management team.

The post is exempt from the rehabilitation of offenders act, due to our work with the elderly and vulnerable members of society and is subject to an enhanced Access NI check.

  • Most of all – the role of a WFF delivery driver is to be a trusted friend of all our customers
  • To collect cash and cheque payments
  • To ensure each customer is provided with “exemplary” service on each delivery
